KEMARK NO.2 LTD

HELLO & WELCOME

Introduction Welcome to this Pre-Application Community Consultation (PACC), this event forms part of the Community Consultation in respect of our proposals relating to lands situated to the south of Nos. 610 – 626 Doagh Road, Newtownabbey. The proposal is for the erection of 3no. storage and distribution units, associated car parking, existing site access from Doagh Road, landscaping and all associated site and access works. Purpose of Consultation and Next Steps

The purpose of this Pre-Application Community Consultation (PACC) is to share our indicative proposals and collect feedback from the community and other interested parties, to inform any future submission of a Full Planning Application to Antrim & Newtownabbey Borough Council.

We are committed to engaging with members of the wider community and are now undertaking a period of PACC on our proposals. The feedback received will be shared with the wider design team and will help to shape our proposals prior to the submission of a planning application. We will prepare a PACC Report which will provide a summary of all feedback, our response, and how we have incorporated any appropriate feedback into the final proposals for the scheme. This report will be submitted as part of the Full Planning Application to Antrim & Newtownabbey Borough Council.

KEMARK NO.2 LTD

PLANNING HISTORY

The subject lands benefit from planning approval (Ref: LA03/2018/0917/F) on the 17th April 2019 for development of 1no. Storage and Distribution Centre (Class B4) and 3no. Light Industrial Units (Class B2) associated car parking, site access from Doagh Road, landscaping and all associated site and access works. Kemark No. 2 Ltd. have erected 2no. light industrial units from the approval bringing employment opportunities to the local area. Further to the approval there have been 2no. planning applications submitted and approved, to vary conditions of the original approval previously mentioned under (Ref: LA03/2022/0726/F) and (Ref: LA03/2024/0704/S54). The subject site has permission for a c.14,500sqm (155,500sqft) storage and distribution centre, of c. 14m in height.

KEMARK NO.2 LTD

PROPOSAL

Instead of delivering 1no Storage and Distribution unit at c.155,500sqft, the proposal intends to deliver a comparable amount of employment floorspace within 3no units. This is primarily to accommodate the operational needs of DHL who have specified a requirement for a bespoke storage and distribution hub of c.6,500 sqm/ 70,000sqft.

To promote choice and to attract additional business end users to the Borough, it is proposed to erect an additional 2no units of varying size at 3,400sqm/37,000sqft and 4,350sqm/47,000sqft

By breaking up the approved floor space into 3 smaller buildings, the positions of the building can be adjusted to increase separation distances from the housing adjacent to Doagh Road. The below images and cross section overlay provide a comparison of the proposed scheme against the approval. In addition, the proposed heights of the storage units have also been lowered. The approved building height was 14m, whereas the proposed heights are now between c.10.5 – 11.5m (see Table below for initial floor to ridge heights).

BENEFITTING THE COMMUNITY

The development proposals will deliver several community and economic benefits as outlined below: • Development represents a total investment of c. £20 million to the local economy from private sector; • Creation of employment, including local supply chain, and apprenticeship opportunities throughout the construction phase; • Establishes DHL, a world-leading logistics company, within the Borough that will provide a range of permanent full-time and part-time job opportunities. Once the site is fully operational, this is expected to be c.105 Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) roles. Unit 6 has been specifically designed to accommodate the operational needs of DHL; • Opportunity to attract other employers to the Borough through the provision of Units 4 & 5 which are of different sizes to promote choice; and • Improved relationships between the proposed storage and distribution units and the residential properties to the north, through increased separation distances and reduced building heights.
